In La Cosa Nostra, you take on the role of
a mafia boss. In the beginning, you control a crew of gangsters and a couple of
businesses. During the game, you will hire new gangsters to do the dirty work
and collect your money. Investments lead to new lines of business or monopoly
positions: take control of the drug dealing, moneylending or prostitution.
Bribe politicians and cops, invest your money in night clubs, casinos or the
waste management industry. To get the big deals, you need to cooperate with the
other families — but never rely on those "friendships". The others
will take the first opportunity to stab you in the back, so you better do it
first...
